Exorcist: Believer is Awful, Velma is Cancer, Call me by Your Name is Ridiculously Overrated 

🤣🤣🤣

The best meme to come from Cleopatra: This totally didn't happen.

I got that reference.

Or maybe make fun of whatever Hindu beliefs she or her folks have. Or maybe poke fun at her culture's caste system. But she won't. She doesn't want to be ostracized by her community. I bet she and Lily Singh belong to their society's upper castes and that may explain their delusional and arrogant attitudes.

I have a real fondness for Catholicism. I grew up where Evangelicals and other Protestants abound, and they treated us like dirt (largely due to the "prosperity gospel" stuff, I imagine) - but the sole Catholic church welcomed a lonely, weird, already-clearly-atheist kid and his worn, sad, also-lonely mom. (didn't even demand conversion or anything, though my mom - decades later - eventually did) _edit:_ also there's the historical and theological flexin it can do 👌

what I (as a non-american) despise really is that it's always the same tired jokes about the Catholic Church, and Only about them. I'd remind all the USA is a protestant country, Catholics have been a minority since the beginning, so yes it's really like if they thrashtalked another nation's culture, like Hindus making fun of Thai Buddhists. It's chauvinist. Wonder why we don't get jokes about all the miniscule useless protestant churches in the US or the Anglican Church cuz they supposedly hate the English too. PS I'm atheist

Non-Christian here. I am also tired of the Church excoriation in movies. That's such an easy target.

Yeah. Saying anything good about traditional Christianity would show guts. She is in the pack of cowards who attack Christianity because it's safe. They also defend Islam in spite of gay sex being the death penalty in most Islamic countries and the slaughter of over 60,000 west African Christians by an Islamist group since the turn of the century.

A lot of people had to pretend to like Call me by your name, critics especially.

@@DespotofAntrim Is it worse than Brokeback Mountain? I saw that movie in theaters and COULD NOT get what all the hype was about. That movie was so boring and just glossed over how gay men use women just to pretend to be straight while having their gay love affair as if because it was 'taboo' that made it all ok.

Don't say things that make you weaker.

my wife *hated* Call Me Etc; my mistress *loved* it. ...gives you a little hint on some important things, doesn't it. things such as *a)* which was shallow and untrustworthy and typical, _vs._ which was smart and loyal and special? *b)* whether I am a smart decent man, or, like... nah? really wish i had not done that. I miss my wife. _uh oh looks like it's drink o'clock again ha ha!_ ha ha

"Fruit: not even once."

I understood that reference.

"person" They're not people.

​Yes they are. Insufferable yes. Worth Dehumanizing, no ​@@austinm3377

Agree

And it's not even a new idea. Death in Venice was written more than a century before it.

In honesty, a story about a pederastic relationship focusing on the emotional fallout the younger man experiences from the older man's advances, particularly as he ages, could be quite interesting.

Considering how tragically common that is (in fact, studies from decades gone by would evidence that the majority of gay men are inducted of sorts by inappropriate advances made upon them as boys by much older men, turning the whole thing into a vicious cycle of ab-se), it would be a far more reasonable and grounded movie to make. But no, we’ve got to have creepy stuff against a boy as committed against him by a much older man, but because it’s gay, it’s good!

Imagine feeding Red Meat to lions...and them liking it! Genius!

Not only genius but beautiful and visionary 😂

yeah.... wait, which one?

Yeah, it's disgusting what that movie put out and could get away with it simply because the movie centers around a ghey couple.

Yeah. It’s something a friend of mine pointed out to me that I haven’t been able to unsee: There’s a disturbing pattern of early movies in a top-level actors’ careers where they have to dress in drag or otherwise debase themselves before getting bigger roles. Anybody remember that classic Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson movie Tooth Fairy?

​@@jackdaone6469similar to female actresses getting naked in movies before they become famous, the acting all feminist and against objectification of women a decade later (aka Margot Robbie).

I didn't watch the movie, and I know I probably won't, but from what I gathered in this video, it seems like this film actually offers a fairly realistic and candid portrayal of how psychologically damaging it can be for a young man to have his first homosexual experiences with an older man. Just because you willingly consent to the sex doesn't mean it can't scar you. A lot of young men get pressured into experimenting these days and a lot of older gay men take advantage of the young men that are down on their luck, perhaps addicted to drugs, perhaps not in the best state of mind for making decisions, and needing a place to stay. Happens all the time. Some addict might be "gay for pay", and though he consents to the sex, it still psychologically scars him horribly. Gay sex isn't all sunshine and roses, quite the opposite really, there is always an element of sexual pathology involved. Frankly, I see most gay sex in terms of people that have been sexually abused by someone of the same sex reenacting the abuse on their own terms so as to reassert their self-deceptive belief that they wanted to be molested or taken advantage of as a drunk teenager or whatever. I have never found the argument that people are born gay in the least bit convincing, at least not for most gay people, like maybe a handful really had no formative experiences to lead them down that path but it is hard to say. People are born without any sexuality, and while our genes may nudge us in some direction, I think that main determining factor is upbringing and one's experiences, not just in childhood but right up through adulthood. People can decide to start experimenting at any time, and I believe the current Zeitgeist has promoted more homosexuality than ever before, getting people who never would have done anything like that to try it. I think sexuality is pretty malleable. It's funny, they say sex is on spectrum and your gender can change but sexual orientation is set in stone, while I see it the other way around, viewing sex as set in stone, disregarding the dubious concept of "gender", and considering the idea that people have lifelong "sexual orientations" that cannot change to be silly. And when it comes to men having anal sex, there is always the element of masochism involved, since the rectum of the "bottom" gets torn up. It does lead to a much higher likelihood of spreading STDs than heterosexual intercourse. I don't particularly care what adults do in their bedrooms, but I won't go with the flow and pretend I think the homosexual lifestyle is healthy just because people will call me a homophobe if I don't. If considering the DSM I through III to be correct about homosexuality being a sexual paraphilia or pathology makes me a homophobe, then so be it. Its removal from the DSM had nothing to do with science or psychiatry and everything to do with politics and social engineering.

I freaking cried at the end of Brokeback Mountain.

There are still many good pieces of cinema coming out. They are just relegated to small time film festivals most of the time and the odd meaningful movie from Hollywood such as Kingdom of the planet of the apes. You guys need to watch more Asian cinema and just disregard shitty Hollywood bullshit until the studios finally realize how to make shit the audiences like again.

@@titanomachy2217 You’re Right with the mental aspect. Majority of gays have been taken advantage of in their formative years but then you say that s*xual orientation isn’t inherent? That doesn’t follow

I haven't seen _Call Me By Your Name_ but I suspect it wasn't a patch on _Moonlight._ (I actually cheered when _Moonlight_ beat _LA LA Land_ and its desperate gimme-an-Oscar antics.) [Speaking of movies with gay characters that I didn't even particularly want to watch but turned out to actually be good, thank you for the shout-out for _Mysterious Skin._ I am hardly a Gregg Araki fan, but _Mysterious Skin_ was amazing - truly a criminally underappreciated movie.]

It's hard to be a RU-vidr without some income so you don't have to work a job as well. I don't see how taking a sponsor is "dishonorable" inherently. People who can't get monetized need to do something if they don't have the volume of people donating to them. You have to pay the bills.

​​​​​​​@@justforever96Except youtube is a platform where you upload videos for free, no one asks these youtubers to be youtubers. Some of these sponsors like better help or that other one where you become a lord and own some land end up being scams or have some controversy because a lot of these RU-vidrs don't do they're research or don't care about the product they're promoting. Also do you really think if i see a raid shadow legends ad for the billionth time I'll suddenly change my mind and be like yeah this is for me? Not to be mean but I've never fallen for any RU-vid sponsorship like ever, so to me it's a waste of time. That and I have to deal with ads every 2 minutes in 90 percent of videos? No thanks, I'd rather donate to a patreon or become a member (which despot did tell us about in this video, and I likely will since I like him and his content when I'm not broke af lol). Some of these channels will sell merch, have sponsorships, have patreon and also ask you to be a member while also having ads and being monetized. Sometimes its a bit much and can piss people off. Like bro I just want to enjoy a 15 minute video after a long day working a normal job without being bombarded by this shit. I think that's completely fair.

Hear hear! There’s nothing stranger to my ears than some doomtuber like Moon interrupting a monologue of how movie x warned about the dystopian hyper consumerist state we live in with an ad for goddamn Raycon earbuds.

@@wozronnonymous1062 Your whole statement is so on point I feel like you peered into my brain lol that's what he is apparently. A doomtuber with clickbait like 95% of the shit on this platform. You can see the huge shift when covid first hit. They knew more people would be plugged into social media, binging shows/movies and online. Seems like everything jumped up 200% making YT more of a bummer to be on due to being interrupted for stupid ads and then on top of that the creator throws in their sponsor like dude just let me watch this thing. It makes a 15 minute video turn into 20 minutes. Like watching Seinfeld on tv. The episodes are around 20 minutes and then 5 minutes or so of commercials. Why do these people or YT or both not see we're on here because we're trying to avoid that exact piece of shit.

Meh...that crowd is a paper dragon... full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. When reality starts to bite back, and it is no longer fashionable to virtue signal thru life with your eyes closed, supporting causes that amount to little more than demonic hedonism, that crowd will crumble and the strong men will be allowed to stand up and take culture back. It will happen, we will prevail. Love and justice always prevails in the end.

As a fellow gay man, I fully agree. We are always depicted as utter sexual deviants, I mean for goodness sake they treat us like those gay stereotype's given to us way back when. I mean even the fact that the main character is so fixated on sex that he masturbates into a fuckin Peach. (It's so comically bad!)

Probably because you just happen to be gay, you didn't make it your whole identity and existence. No one cares, it's not a big deal. There were openly gay people in the Victorian days, they were known and recognized. Society generally condemned it, but they accepted it was a thing. They had whole streets of gay people and clubs. Now we act like it this whole new amazing thing and we only just stopped burning gays at the stake a few years ago. One of the most interesting Civil War memoirs I have read was excerpted in a book about Vermont soldiers in the Civil War . One of the guys he had the most passages from came from the small town I grew up in. From the way he talked in his diary or was very clear that he was gay and had a lover named Zenas, another young man. The boss at the factory he worked at came to him and asked him to tone it down a bit because some of the other workers didn't like it. His mom was unhappy. But he wasn't fired, he wasn't arrested. He served with honor in a Vt Regiment in the Old Brigade through most of the biggest battles of the war. That was 1860 in rural New England.

@@justforever96 Even before then- I watched a doco, years ago- 'Queer as 18th Century Folk'- it was interesting & eye-opening, from a historical perspective- & my being straight didn't impact how I viewed it; it was an unconventional documentary, told rather well. Charting the journey of the time, from semi-visibility & near-acceptance - to feared/ despised, publicly- & an otherwise underground subculture, made it an interesting & occasionally challenging watch. There *are* ways to make unconventional topics interesting & engaging -- *_THE MESSAGE_* -style is not it...

Do you wear diapers?

If you want some very good gay movie, Philadelphia is basically very good one. Its how AIDS slowly kills a man, but his death isnt just dying, everyone he knew started do distance themselves from him. What makes it gay is the fact that Tom Hanks' character is a gay lawyer, who got AIDS from his partner, if i remember it correctly

The mega blockbuster hit movie that showed us small towns can have lots of charm if you don't mind getting eaten by prehistoric dinosaur worms!!!

Yours is the fourth comment to that effect under this vid. You are not alone.😎

I agree. For men, the humiliation is doing something gay or trans (dressing as a woman). For women, it's probably being sexualized to a ridiculous extent.

That's because Seth Green has talent.

It's almost like predators become movie directors because they are allowed to be inhuman and all the other perverts cover for them.

And this garbage totally breaks Scooby franschize lore.Fred,Shaggy,Velma and Daphne not just totally different peoples,but also already meet Scrappy without meeting Scooby yet,and when gang met with Scoob,they don't had any idea about Scrap even exist.Scrappy-Doo by his own words and by literally what was shown in the show it's an failed experiment,while in "Be cool Scooby-Doo" Scoob himself answered on question did he an experiment by saying "No" and for more evidence in "Scooby-Doo:Mystery Incorporated" was very directly implied that Scooby-Doo and also Scrappy-Doo as his grandson are aliens.So why they can't make show about other team?Especially considering that Mystery Inc. it's one team,but more like archetype ,what exist since aztecs.

I wouldn't go that far, under my skins a good gay film

I like Stonewall (1995)

Brokeback Mountain was far better, great story and very well acted, great cinematography and music, a lot of pathos to the film. CMBYN was pretentious guff masquerading as a Gay film when it was just vehicle for girl boy twonk Timmy Shallowmay.. and the other fella with the porn name who ironically got cancelled for sending filth

​@@marcusmaher-triskellionfil5158 For me Brokeback Mountain was equally boring and unrelatable. Maybe because every single gay film I have seen before that had the same grieving, over dramatized plot where they portray gayness as something very important and dramatic. It's objectively better in every single aspect than CMBYN, but let's be honest, that's not a high bar. I get it, being gay was a struggle 40-50 years ago, but this is the 21th century! Come on! I'm 40 years old, from an Eastern European country and never had an issue with it in my life. The reason I like Pride (2014) because it doesn't handle sexuality as a defining factor in human existence. It very well focuses on higher human values such as solidarity, and compassion, with loveable characters. Why do characters have to be depressed miserable, boring in every single LGB film?
